Springing Responses and Springing Effects on Design Bending Moments of a Large Container Ship

摘要

In this study Fluid Structure Interaction (FSI) models are used toinvestigate nonlinear wave actions and wave induced global loadsacting on a large container ship. This paper introduces some methods topredict values of dynamic bending moments considering the effects dueto springing suitable for design application. Further this paper presentsa design guidance to determine springing induced fatigue loads.Examples of the use of these methods are also presented. A 13,000TEU container ship has been used for the study on springing responsesand springing effects on design bending moments.
